They have built a new temple in Stanford, the old one was overcrowded.
Rehasing iOS7
New ringtones! (snicker)
iOS 7 will be free, starting September 18th.
Rehashing iWork
iWork + iPhoto + iMove are now free.
iPhone 5C green, yellow, blue, white, red, 4" retina display, A6 processor, LTE, no Wifi ac.
With 2 year contract 16gb $99, 32gb $199.
iPhone 5S "black", "gold" and "silver" think metallic dark gray, metallic beige, and metallic light grey.
Has A7 processor, which is 64-bit (hope they put in lots of RAM, that's the drawback of 64-bit). Will apps all be running in 32-bit mode though or will we have "FAT" binaries like on MacOS? Not sure from the live blogs I was following, but it looks like there is 32-bit compatibility and I'm guessing FAT binary support.
They are claiming "up to" 2x performance increase... I'll wait for benchmarks.
I hope it's true, that will make the next round of ARM chips well into laptop speeds.
(Not at all sure why you need this in a phone though. Should be good in the iPad.)
The have added a "motion" coprocessor. Will enable better fitness apps.
Claiming 10 hour in-use battery life. (Again, I'll wait for reviews before I believe that.)
It's clear they have improved the camera... Lots of fancy names and "features", but it's not clear how much is hype. At least some of it has been on non-iPhones for a while. It does not appear to reach Lumia 1020 levels of capability, but it may be close. Will have to wait for reviews using actual photographs.
Does have finger print sensor. The technology came from AuthenTec, which made finger print sensors for lots of laptops... it was rather poor in practice. One assumes Apple has improved it. However, things like hand cream, sunscreen, dirty hands, gloves, etc. will render this far from a panacea. [Can't you just hear the East Coast-based press screaming about this, come Winter?]
The Moto X approach is probably better.
Meet Motorola Skip, the Moto X NFC-based unlock accessory
iPhone 4S stays in lineup, free with 2 year contract.
In stores, September 20th.
It is still a tiny phone and iOS 7 still lags Android (with yet another Android update coming next month).

Financial Slight of Hand
Years ago when I moved to my current home, I took a survey of the local banks. Thankfully the one with the best interest rates was also an independent bank nearby, though I didn't place as much emphasis on walking distance then as I do now. It has since then been bought, and the name progressively watered down until the old name has essentially disappeared. Still, they haven't done anything else to offend me, and it is pretty nice having the bank just down the street. But that is a bit of tangent. The point is, that since I first joined, the interest rates have proceeded to, basically, stink.
A while ago they started advertising a new program; a checking account, which if you maintain a certain rather high balance, earns a decent interest rate – several times what my 'savings' account was earning. It still baffles me what logic led to this program. Of course, there were lots of reasons to not take the offer. The prospect of getting a new account – with new checks and different account numbers, especially with several automatic payments, was somewhat daunting. There is also a little bit of a scam with the savings account – interest is paid quarterly, and unpaid interest is forfeited if the account is closed before that time. I'd also heard of socially responsible investing, but have never had time to investigate.
The net effect of this, was, of course the inevitable non-action, for most of the year. But a few months ago (the time delay until now evidencing yet more procrastination), it was just after the end of the quarter and social investing had gotten no further than before, so I asked about. It turns out that they are much smarter about it than I had feared – they changed the type code on my existing checking account with a few clicks (and a signature for the sake of form), closed down the savings account, and the whole thing was over rather painlessly. It still baffles me a little that they will raise the interest rate so much for the asking; I guess they are counting on lazy people like me not to ask, while having the program there to attract some new customers.
To be fair they bank will save a little a money for having one less account to maintain, and fewer transactions between them – I would deposit a little of each paycheck into the savings acocunt; my bank visits go much faster now that I have a single deposit.
It also points to the virtuality of money; to the bank the transfer was just subtracting one number and adding to another. Now I have a similar effect – I have one account that is both checking and savings, and the dividing line is kept entirely 'on paper' solely for my own purposes. This actually made for something of interesting question in the beginning – do I keep my checkbook in 'available funds' or in the actual account balance? I ended up going for the actual balance to simplify balancing with the bank statements. But now I can play the same kinds of financial games the bank can – I rolled my personal 'minimum balance' into the the virtual savings balance, since any short term shortfalls can just borrow from the savings instead of actually hitting a bank level overdraft. Likewise my 'saving deposit' has become a small book-keeping entry, together with keeping the new dividing line in mind as I make payments in the checking account.
Meanwhile, I ran across Zopa, which has a bit of the anti-institutional flavor, and even better rates. Of course this a bit of a long term investment (minimum 12 months for full repayment) and the savings 'account' is my 6-months living expense buffer + liquid emergency cash + big purchase savings. I'd have to double the 6-month figure to be able to withdraw living expenses at rate I want, and of course the longer term markets have better interest rates. In any case I've put off experimenting with it until the tax year is over, for the sake of simplicity.

Making Spirits Bright with Jolly Hats
Today's card is as bright and cheerful, with a happy Christmas color scheme, a jolly hat, and polka dots galore. Making it has certainly made my spirits bright, and I hope that reading about it makes yours bright too!
Challenge Inspiration
This card was inspired by The Paper Players Challenge #321!
Such a fun Christmas color combination! These are all bright, upbeat colors that make for a fun, happy card. As such, I chose to use a somewhat light hearted theme, with image of a hat with some fun polka dot patterns.
I especially like how the polka dots from the Designer Series papers work together. They aren't exactly the same, but they are very harmonious together and both patterns add to the whimsical feeling of the card.
Card Directions
- Cut and fold a Emerald Envy card base.
- Cut a Real Red panel 1/4″ (0.6 cm) smaller than the card base.
- Cut a piece of Irresistibly Floral Specialty Designer Series Paper 3/8″ (0.9 cm) smaller than the card base.
- Add a light layer of Mint Macaron to the Irresistibly Floral DSP using a sponge. I centered the ink in the center and spread it out lightly to the edges, so it got lighter the farther from the center it got.
- Adhere the Irresistibly Floral DSP to the Real Red panel. Wrap the Emerald Envy ribbon around these panels, adhering it in the back. Then adhere thee panels to the card base.
- Cut out the largest scalloped oval shape from the Layering Ovals Framelits in Real Red.
- Cut out the largest oval shape from the Stitched Shapes Framelits in Whisper White. Onto this layer, stamp the sentiment from the Tin of Tags stamp set in Real Red ink.
- Adhere the white oval onto the red scalloped oval.
- Punch a hat shape out of Mint Macaron polka dot patterned paper from the 2015-2017 In Color Designer Series Paper collection.
- Stamp the brim and tassel of the hat from the Jolly Friends stamp set onto Whisper White cardstock with black ink. Punch these images out using the Jolly Hat Builder Punch.
- Adhere the pieces of the hat together, then attach them to the white oval shape with a dimensional.
- Fold half a doily using an accordion fold and tuck it behind the Emerald Envy ribbon on the card base, adhering it in place.
- Use a double thick layer of dimensionals to adhere the oval shape to the card base. Make sure the hat is supported with additional dimensionals under this layer so it doesn't get squished in the mail!
An Upbeat Christmas Color Combination
All the colors in this combination are bright and cheerful, giving this Christmas color scheme an upbeat, happy feel. What better feeling for a Christmas card?
Thanks for visiting and happy stamping!

Students from three schools in the UK will compete in the national final of the Faraday Challenge in London on Friday.
The teams from Lomond School, Ellesmere College, and Church Stretton School will design and manufacture a "re-hydration station" for athletes competing in long distance events. The devices will be tested and a panel of judges will crown the winners at the end of the day.
The teams, which are made up of 12 to 13-year-olds studying science, design technology and maths, have beaten off competition from 160 schools to make it to the final. The challenge is part of the Faraday education programme, developed by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), which aims to encourage more young people to study and consider exciting and rewarding careers in science, technology, engineering and maths. Fifty-five Faraday Challenge Days have taken place across the UK.
Olympic race walker, Chris Maddocks, will join the judges on the day. Maddocks is the only male athlete to ever have competed in five consecutive Olympics. He will also give a short presentation on his experience of competing in five consecutive Olympics and the importance of adequate hydration and nutrients in the performance of athletes.
IET education manager Dee Halil said: "Over 1,900 students have taken part in this year's challenge, so the students have done amazingly well to make it to the final. The engineering solutions they have presented have been fantastically creative.
"Students have been given a peek into the life of a real engineer, the variety of engineering out there and the central role it plays in our everyday lives."
The winning team would receive a cash prize of £1,000 for their school. The second and third-placed teams will receive £500 and £250.

Posts Tagged 'economy'
Paul Krugman is an NYT op-ed columnist, economics professor at Princeton, and everything that is wrong with academic economics. His recent article aimed at blasting Rand Paul about a tweet is a great example of his academic shortsightedness.
His worst quote is the following:
"issuing debt is a way to pay for useful things, and we should do more of that when the price is right. The United States suffers from obvious deficiencies in roads, rails, water systems and more; meanwhile, the federal government can borrow at historically low interest rates. So this is a very good time to be borrowing and investing in the future, and a very bad time for what has actually happened: an unprecedented decline in public construction spending adjusted for population growth and inflation."
This would have made since back when the National Debt was 1/10 what it is today. Had that borrowed money been spent on infrastructure like Krugman is suggesting, we'd have amazing roads (maybe even paved in gold!), freeways, practically no student loan debt, an abundance of water retention systems in California, and massive alternative energy infrastructure. Instead, our roads are in horrible condition and cost us an average of $515/month (after double taxes – income and excise- mind you).
Sure, Krugman's statements make sense on paper. I've seen this kind of thinking before when I was studying economics in college. It's the same shortsightedness that had me question whether a degree in economics was worth anything more than the paper it is written on. Spoiler alert: the ink costs more than the paper.
Earlier this year, Krugman wrote another half-witted articles about debt (amongst so many others).
With statements like "Because debt is money we owe to ourselves, it does not directly make the economy poorer (and paying it off doesn't make us richer)", Krugman proves that studying economics at Princeton is a waste of money. First, our national debt is not owned entirely by American citizens. Second, owing YOURSELF money is fine (great example is taking a loan against your 401K) ONLY IF you pay it back. At some point, you aren't going to have income, and if you've borrowed your entire 401K, you're really hurting your retirement as well as what you are leaving behind for your family. The argument that the microeconomics doesn't apply to the macroeconomics is false.
It's certainly a reasonable argument to make that America borrowing money from itself and then paying it back is a good thing much like borrowing from a 401K is a good thing for an individual. However, if that money doesn't get paid back and just piles up instead, you're left with an accelerated increase in debt:
National Debt per citizen in 1980: $4,118
National Debt per citizen currently: $57,093
Even adjusting for inflation, the $4,118 only equals a mere $11,926.11. That's quite a bit off from the $57K each citizen owns. It gets even worse when you only count taxpayers.
Borrowing and paying back is fine, but that's not what America is doing. We're borrowing and then having someone else pay it back (maybe, if they can). That's called a Ponzi scheme. If America was borrowing from itself (which it isn't since 35% is foreign owned) and paying back the debt within a generation, we'd see a much smaller national debt than the $18MMM+ we currently have.
At the end of the day, it appears Krugman is too smug with his academia version of national debt that he can't see the flaws of his logic when applied to the real world as opposed to the fictitious one in which he wants to believe actually exists. He's played his cards right and gotten to a level of academic prestige, which is great for him and the New York Times; not so good for public perceptions of debt.
It's going to be 6-9 months before things start moving into recovery, and they are going to get much worse over the next 3 months. And that is a best case scenario. Why is this recession going to be so long and so severe? Simple, we denied it was happening for almost an entire year!
Remember, according to our government our economy was fundamentally strong just 3 months ago. That wasn't the case then. That wasn't even the case a year ago.
Recessions are fairly simple to recover from if they are dealt with responsibly. Ignoring it for 12 months just dug us a deeper hole. It would be like ignoring a broken leg for 12 months. Your leg would take longer to heal and would probably heal incorrectly (i.e. via $700 billion government bailout = $15 billion automobile industry bailout).
Here's an idea for the government bailout program that the vast majority of Americans don't support. Give us an opt out clause on our taxes for the next 10 years.
Now, I'm not talking about opting out of our taxes. Those of us who don't support the bailout will still have to pay our taxes as usual. However, we can opt out of our tax dollars being used to fund this ridiculous scam.
If you limit the government's availability of funds, they can't be as spendthrift as they have been. If they want to come up with $700 billion to spend on some useless bailout, they will need to get it from some other source than the American taxpayer.
Years ago, this would not have been possible. However, with technology today, this is entirely possible. In fact, we could give taxpayers the ability to opt out of any irresponsible government spending. It would really make it simple for the government to determine how much they can waste on pointless bailouts like the automobile industry bailout. If 60% of Americans don't support the automobile bailout then they will only have access to 40% of the taxpayer funds.
This would make budgeting for the government much easier! Taxpayers don't support something, Congress can't just go spend the money whenever and wherever they want. I suspect that we could balance the budget within 4-5 years and keep it balanced indefinitely with a bailout opt out clause. In fact, I suspect the government would end up with considerable surpluses as government waste would now have a true checks and balance system in place. The total tax dollars collected would be the same, but the ability for Congress to spend would drop considerably.
Now, some might argue that this would create serious problems with because the funding for the bailout is something that is "necessary" to avoid a greater economic downturn or because it is something the public doesn't understand the importance of. I have two words December 2007.
Just last week, I has started publishing information about energy-based inflation. I had the idea and predicted it in a paper I wrote for an economics class almost 5 years ago. It was the first, and only, B graded paper I had ever written in an economics class. The professor gave it this low grade because he ultimately disagreed with me that energy could cause a ripple of inflation in the American economy.
This morning, I check my email to find further support for my theory of energy-based inflation. The Washington Post published an article about how Coal Can't Fill the World's Burning Appetite. To sum up their article, circumstances have shot the price of coal up by 50% or more over the last five month. While this short-term spurt in price may be able to be absorbed by businesses, don't count on it. The price of coal is not going to be coming down any time soon. Same with oil.
What does this mean for America? Well, if you read the report from our government, guess where we get 49% of our energy from? If there is a sustained increase in the price of the resource that generates 49% of all of our energy, you can bet your house that prices are going to go up everywhere!
The bottom line is that energy is driving inflation in our economy, not interest rates. Watch what happens to all the rate cuts by the Federal Reserve this year. They will go to offset the energy costs. It will temporarily stabilize energy inflation, but it is not a permanent solution. Energy costs will rise, and the Fed will be powerless. Changes in the energy market are the only thing that will curb energy-based inflation. I'll post my solution on Wordscause this evening.
I don't have all the economic sources nor the historical data that the FED has, but I do have data that is very telling of the economic conditions: data from the company that I work for. One of the systems we use is the National Change Of Address (NCOA). It allows us to keep our addresses fresh in our customer database so that we aren't wasting our mailing resources. It is offered by the US Postal Service at a nominal cost given the potential savings in direct mail cost.
We ran the NCOA right before the holiday season last year and there was considerable relocation taking place with our consumers. We just recently ran the NCOA again, and there is a significant slowdown in the volume of movers. Interestingly enough, the slowdown started right about the same time that the FED dropped interest rates.
What does all this mean? Well, for us, the NCOA indicates the housing market. More than 90% of our customers own their own home, so a lot of change of addresses means volatility in the housing market. A slowdown in the NCOA means things are starting to stabilize in the housing market. A more stable housing market is good for business.
I'm predicting a slight dip over the next couple of months because of the sensationalistic nature of the media when it comes to reporting economic data. Also, most economic indicators are not real-time, meaning that seeing a bad economic indicator today typically means that it took place 3-6-9 months ago. Look for a mild 3rd quarter and a strong 4th quarter in 2008 provided there is not major political upheaval.
Anyone who says the Bush stimulus package of a $600 tax rebate is not going to stimulate the US Economy hasn't been watching The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch. I've seen more millionaires made from $600 or less on that show than I ever thought was possible. The moral of the story: Your wealth is what you make of it.
Every time I watch that show, I'm completely inspired. Regular people making it big because they had a dream that they pursued. My favorite episode was a few days ago. I can't remember the guy's name, but there was a venture capitalist on the show who said that the "side job" never becomes the next million dollar idea. Got me thinking about how many "side jobs" I've had over the years. None of them took off. Watching the show, I see nearly all of the stories have something in come: they quit their job went after the dream.
What dream is worth dreaming but not pursuing? Time to take the plunge. Grab that $600 tax rebate and do something with it!
Bernanke's rookie year was a bit rough for the nation. His second year hasn't had much success either. However, it appears that he is coming out of the textbook world of economics and into the real world. Yes, the world where living, breathing humans with names actually lose their jobs and houses rather than his previous world where there is a % increase in unemployment.
My favorite quote from Bernanke was the following:
To be useful, a fiscal stimulus package should be implemented quickly and structured so that its effects on aggregate spending are felt as much as possible within the next 12 months or so.
Clearly, this is in stark contrast to his molasses monetary policy, which consists of waiting. And waiting. And waiting some more. Essentially paralyzed by inflationary fears.
What is interesting about Bernanke's leadership in the FED is that it puts much more control of the economy into the hands of the Federal government as opposed to our central bank. This is a scary notion. Political winds change, shift, dwindle in a relatively short period. The result is much more sporadic economic conditions and less economic stability. If not offset by consistent Federal Reserve Policy, the US Economy will be severely upset by fiscal policy.
Bernanke has recently indicated that the FED is looking to take aggressive action, indicating to many that a half point cut in interest rates should be expected at the end of this month. Provided that the FED does indeed shift from the monetary drip policy to at least a trickle as indicated, the US economy might be able to shed off some of the damage we can anticipate from the recent change in China's labor law.

After 35 years of practicing dentistry in Pascagoula, Julius A. "Jay" Willis, D.M.D., sold his practice and retired. For the last few years, he has been doing dental practice transition consulting through his new company, Willis and Associates, L.L.C. The company facilitates all types of dental practice transitions in Mississippi, including appraisals, sales, purchases, mergers, partnerships and associateships on a flat-fee basis. To find out more about his company, visit www.drjaywillis.com. One of the big joys of Dr. Willis' retired life is spoiling his four grandsons.
Four members of the UMMC School of Dentistry Class of 1982, including Helen Lee Campassi, D.M.D. (front row, right), Robin Campassi, D.M.D. (back row, right), David Gilmore, D.M.D. (back row, second from right), and Wade Hankins, D.M.D. (Back row, second from left), recently went on a continuing education cruise on the Rhine River. They were joined by Mary Gilmore (front row, left) and Claudia Hankins (back row, left).
Edward S. Wheeler, D.M.D., has played an instrumental role in the annual Thumbs Up for Bill 5k Run in Gulfport, named in honor of Dr. Bill Gasparrini, a local psychologist and beloved member of the local running and cycling community in south Mississippi who fought a courageous battle against cancer. The fourth TUFB 5K event took place Nov. 22 with several members of the 5th district dental community in attendance. The 5K generated approximately $5,000 in funds for the Memorial Hospital at Gulfport Oncology Special Needs Fund, which helps cancer patients with out-of-pocket costs beyond their medical treatment, such as food, transportation and medicine. For more information about the Thumbs Up for Bill Run or the Memorial Hospital Foundation, call Dave Estorage or Dana Lamey at (228) 865-3048.
After completing a general practice residency at the University of Florida, Tara T. Hackney, D.M.D., has worked as a public health dentist in Florida for the last 25 years. She was recently named one of 66 Florida Public Health Heroes for her work with programs that expanded dental care for children in her county. She is a member of a team of community dentists that obtained funding and built an all-volunteer clinic in St. Augustine and she also regularly volunteers there, donating more than 160 hours to treat uninsured adults. She and her husband, Mike, recently celebrated their 26th anniversary. Their two children, Noah and Rachel, attend the University of Florida, but are also Mississippi State Bulldog fans, having attended MSU football games and watched them on TV through the years.
Raanne Ray Tindle, D.M.D., is looking forward to the graduation of her daughter, Trevor Tindle, from the UMMC School of Dentistry in May 2015.

The stratum corneum is continuously shed at the surface and varies greatly in thickness—it is greatest in the soles and palms. ++ The normal rate of maturation from a basal cell to a surface cornified cell is 2 weeks. The cell remains in the stratum corneum another 2 weeks before it is shed. ++ Melanocytes ++ Melanocytes are epidermal cells derived from the embryologic neural crest. They produce melanin and are situated singly in the basal layer, appearing as larger clear cells. The dopa reaction, which is positive in the presence of enzymes of the tyrosine–melanin pathway is a histochemical means of identifying melanocytes. Melanocytes have dendritic processes that ramify in the epidermis and transfer melanin to keratinocytes. ++ Melanocytes can be identified through electron microscopy by the presence of melanosomes, which are membrane-bound ellipsoidal structures containing concentric internal lamellae. Positive staining for S100 protein and melanosomal antigen (HMB45) are useful immunohistochemical markers for melanocytes. ++ The number of melanocytes in the skin is relatively constant. Skin pigmentation is dependent on the rate of synthesis of melanin, which is governed by (1) racial factors, being greater in dark-skinned races; (2) ultraviolet radiation, which increases melanin synthesis; and (3) hormones—melanocyte-stimulating hormone and adrenocorticotropin both increase melanin pigmentation. ++ Langerhans Cells ++ Langerhans cells are clear dendritic cells situated among the cells of the stratum spinosum. They are believed to be antigen-processing cells. They are S100 protein-positive on immunohistochemical studies. On electron microscopy, they lack melanosomes but contain a characteristic organelle known as a Birbeck granule. ++ Merkel Cells ++ Merkel cells are neuroendocrine cells that are present in the basal layer of the epidermis. They cannot be recognized in routine histologic sections but can be identified in electron micrographs by the presence of cytoplasmic neurosecretory granules. ++ The Dermis ++ The dermis is a layer of connective tissue 1–4 mm thick subjacent to the epidermis.

Crazy. Child born – boom 4 months later and I haven't blogged.
Finally got the Evolution 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 release notes out. 2.2.2 for GNOME 2.10.1. Hopefully get head versioned up and rolling again for GNOME 2.12 this week.
Finally got around to some gnome-pilot patch application, need to send out a "state of the pilot" email to the gnome-pilot list. Checked in some fixes to the bonobo-daemon branch to clean up the configuration.
Checked out and built gnome-chess for the first time in probably a year. Need to resurrect this either as the same C or a C#/Mono project, but first I have to think about the UI, I changed it long ago but it feels overly complicated for the usual use cases. Richard Hoelscher contacted me a while back about SVG icons which would be greatly welcomed.
As for Emily (the aforementioned daughter), she has recently started rolling over. Nice dinners with parents on both sides over Easter. Finally started installing the countertop in the kitchen. Getting better with the caulking gun.

As many of you know, Alta Vista School recently bid on the building at 350 University, the University Mound Ladies Home. Our bid was in response to a general invitation from the UMLH Board and our need for additional classroom space as we continue to grow our program through 8th grade. Our primary interest is providing an excellent education to our students, and our campus expansion project is a primary piece of that responsibility.
Contrary to some reports you may have read, our bid and even our knowledge of the sale of the property came after UMLH decided to close the facility. Our submission of a bid was under the clear understanding that the money was needed to continue the UMLH mission, restart their endowment, and provide subsidy for existing residents' relocation needs. Alta Vista School also arranged as part of our offer to provide other ongoing assistance to continue the mission of the UMLH.
We have remained largely silent in deference to the UMLH Board as they face complex and difficult decisions, but be assured that we would not pursue a course that would be the cause of evictions of the UMLH residents.
If the UMLH Board determines another path is a superior way for them to further their mission we will defer to their judgment on that matter. We continue to pursue the building project at 450 Somerset as our initial plan for campus expansion.
In the months since we decided to put down roots in the Portola neighborhood we have found overwhelming support from our own parent community and from the broader neighborhood. While there remain disagreements over our campus expansion plans with some of our neighbors, we are committed to continued dialog, engagement, and being a good neighbor. We hope Alta Vista School has a long and vibrant future as a piece of the fabric in the Portola.

More About Sarah
Sarah K. Grace is a powerful and dynamic individual who spent over a decade merging her career as a paramedic in some of California's busiest 911 systems with her innate gifts as a clairvoyant medium, medical intuitive, and energy healer. Combining Western and Energy Medicine, Sarah has spent years studying both physical and energy anatomy while applying her skills in critical settings to thousands of patients as they dealt with life and death emergencies.
Sarah now has a vibrant private practice working with clients worldwide as they embrace their own power, make sense of their energetic abilities, and heal past traumas. She is an author, mentor, intuitive energy healer, clairvoyant medium, medical intuitive, and licensed paramedic. She is a vibrant person with quick wit and dry humor who's intention is to lead by example, displaying that one can fully engage their psychic abilities while still thriving in joyful, powerful, and abundant lives.
Sarah K. Grace lives, works, and plays in Northern California while accommodating clients from all across the country in their own personal empowerment and energetic awareness. Her intuitive, grounded approach is clear in every session, and is easily translated both in person and over the phone. Understanding that the whole Human Experience is just a whimsical moment of infinite Creation, Sarah chooses to embrace life fully while empowering her clients to do the same.
"In her courageous and compelling memoir, "Journey Into Grace", Sarah shares experiences from over a decade of working as a paramedic, interwoven with the story of her own evolution with her psychic gifts. Sarah takes us on a riveting ride as she shows us how transformation and rebirth can only be a result of honoring one's own inner truth… This book is a high-intensity, fascinating, powerful must-read!"
"Journey Into Grace is an enthralling and dramatic story about one person's battle with the light and the dark of life. Sarah has discovered and described her path in the way that many authors write of, yet fail to truly communicate. This is where the author succeeds, because as she describes her story, you are actually transported into the moment. Sarah is truly a beacon of light for lost or wondering souls."
"Working with Sarah marked the beginning of my Spiritual Path, and since our time together my life has changed drastically for the better. I've always been sensitive to energy, but now I finally know how to deal with it. I'm no longer a victim of my past or of the energy I see and feel - instead, I am strong, clear, grounded, and excited to create a life of limitless possibility. Thank you, Sarah, for helping me through my trauma and back into my power!"
"I have had the opportunity to work with Sarah multiple times and each time has left me feeling more empowered with the Awareness of who I am, as well as what is blocking my fullest expression. She is fully Present with you when working with the multiple layers of information available to her. It is truly shocking when she reveals just how much detailed information she gets. With each session I walked away with what I consider the most important element of being here now – a more grounded connection with my Soul so that I can now fulfill my purpose. I would gladly work with her time and time again."
"Sarah has written a heartfelt story that shows a deep level of resilience that inspires us all. Through her own healing, she is now able to bring all of her diverse abilities to bear to help others walk their own path to wholeness."
I am a 70-year-old active baby boomer with no plans to settle down in retirement. My longest running physical ailment has been low back pain since I was 25 years old. While working as a hodcarrier, I routinely carried 95 lb. sacks of cement. One especially busy day, I lifted the last of 120 sacks and suddenly couldn't stand up. The pain was excruciating. Since that time, I never know when my back would "go out" and no doctor, chiropractor, or energy worker has been able to effect a lasting change… until Sarah Grace. Whatever talent she has as an energy worker is real. I saw her twice and with the inclusion of a few simple stretching exercises I am pain-free and can move better than I have in 30 years. Anyone who has similar issues needs to give Sarah a try. Besides being the sweetest human imaginable, she is direct, blunt, articulate, and because of her EMT training, very knowledgeable about how the human body works. Lastly let me say that beyond the professionalism of her work, she is really fun to work with and the results are life-changing. Thank you, Sarah Grace, for doing what you do. I can never repay what you've given me.

The Safe Passage Project was selected as a Fall 2013 Pro Bono Heroes of the Northeast Region by American Immigration Lawyers Association
Congratulations to the Safe Passage Project and all of our pro bono attorneys and volunteer students! The American Immigration Lawyers' Association (AILA) selected Safe Passage as the Fall 2013 Pro Bono Heroes of the Northeast Region, which includes nominations from Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
Each quarter, AILA recognizes individuals and organizations from across the country that embody the ethical responsibility to provide pro bono service through promoting and contributing to pro bono work, taking on complex pro bono cases, or handling a significant number of pro bono cases or pro bono hours.
Thanks to every single one of you who partner with Safe Passage, and donate your time and legal skills, to positively impact the lives of some of the most vulnerable children in our community.
Each year thousands of children have been apprehended by U.S. immigration officials while entering the U.S. illegally. In 2014 more than 63,000 have immigrated into the United States. Many of these children are unaccompanied and are seeking refuge from abuse and maltreatment. Others come to the U.S. with parents or family members who are unable or unwilling to care for them. Because the immigration process is a civil system, aliens in the U.S. are not entitled to legal counsel at government expense. As a result, many immigrant children face a complex system on their own.
The Safe Passage Immigration Project, a division of the Justice Action Center at New York Law School, works with volunteer attorneys and New York Law School students to provide representation of unaccompanied minors in the immigration process. Safe Passage provides training, resources, and mentoring to volunteer attorneys regarding Special Immigrant Juvenile ("SIJ") status as well as other possible immigration alternatives for children.

Only 2 of them still remain, and all the save files are still present. I checked how much space was left on my sd card, but it still remained the same even though the nds files were no longer there. How do I fix this and get my games back?

Over half a decade ago, it was predicted that résumés were dead and applying for jobs would be a waste of time. Instead, networking would win you a new job and social media profiles were the new résumés.
Today, résumés are still requested by most companies and the majority of those companies still require that job seekers complete an application, primarily online. Where was the forecasting miss?
Many hiring companies do enable applicants to apply and populate online application fields by applying with a LinkedIn profile. That has made the process easier in some respects, but it also means that applicants have to have a glowing LinkedIn profile that is complete and details work history and accomplishments. The assumption was that every professional would have a LinkedIn profile leading to the death of résumés. As it turns out, five years later, that is not the case.
According to LinkedIn at the time of this writing, a high number of professionals have a LinkedIn profile, but many profiles are still incomplete and lack summaries. That in itself makes it challenging to rely on LinkedIn solely as a résumé replacement.
Additionally, employers need to collect more information than what a LinkedIn profile provides for EEOC compliance and non-discriminatory hiring practices, permissions for background and credit checks, and data for their human capital management systems once an employee is hired. Applicant tracking systems (ATS) are necessary to streamline and ensure consistency in recruitment and data capture. Having candidates complete application also means that every applicant is fairly asked the same questions.
So résumés haven't gone away, nor have applications. In fact, new ATS solutions have continued to emerge on the market. Changes will occur, but those changes will primarily be enhancements to improve the user experience in completing applications and to make solutions more mobile. The ATS, however, is still the mainstay for organizing recruitment data.
The truth is that job seekers can't abandon application completion as a part of their job search. It is true that more and more job deals are created and sealed through networking, but in reality a job search needs to be a three-pronged approach to make it really effective. That means efforts need to parsed out to searching for opportunities, completing applications and networking.
To really increase your odds of getting the interview, still apply to a position online, but then devote a significant portion of time to discovering who the hiring manager is for a role plus other contacts who work for the company and can facilitate an introduction or serve as a referral. Then reach out. Get your application noticed so that it doesn't fall through the cracks in the ATS's or résumé bot's automatic sorting and ranking. Sell yourself. Don't depend on your application alone to get you noticed.

Last week there was an amusing situation where some data was suggesting Pavlof's volcano was about to erupt (seismometers), and then was erupting (thermal imaging), but people on the ground couldn't confirm it, because, as the volcano is in Alaska and it was a bit cloudy. It cleared up a bit and the eruption was confirmed. Well, the folks on the International Space Station have produced some stunning shots (via Slate.com) of Pavlof's volcano erupting and the plume spreading for 100s of kms.
Volcano observation from the ISS is actually a very handy tool, as most remote sensing satellites work only in a top down approach. The ability to have a human able to recognise something and look at it from side-on is still quite powerful!
Here's to that great combination of stunning and deadly.
Note the Slate website have been stealing my obviously original jokes. :p

There's been a considerable amount of talk about Hillary Clinton being a flawed candidate with the potential to self-destruct during a tough race.
The last few days of headlines featuring the name "Bush" and "Iraq" may set some wondering if the same isn't true of Jeb Bush. Even the damage control attempted after a now-controversial exchange with Fox's Megyn Kelly on Iraq is causing Jeb damage on the right, as well as the left.
Republican Jeb Bush said on Tuesday that "mistakes were made" in the Iraq war, moving to disavow a controversial statement he made in support of the 2003 invasion ordered by his brother, then-President George W. Bush.
The former Florida governor, who is likely to run for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016, had told Fox News in an interview broadcast on Sunday that "I would have" authorized the invasion.
The comment fed a narrative pushed by Democrats that Jeb Bush is little different from his brother, who left office in early 2009 with his popularity weakened by the Iraq war and a faltering U.S. economy.
All in all, Jeb's mishandling of what had to be a foreseeable issue also calls into question how well-prepared he is for a run at the White House.
Even after his clarification Tuesday afternoon that he wasn't in actuality reaching beyond his brother's defense of the Iraq War, Bush continues aligning himself with some of the former president's most hawkish advisers including former NSA and CIA head Michael Hayden and former Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz; and the former Florida governor has signaled that his own foreign policy vision would be similar to his brother's: muscular and interventionist.
After explaining his response to Kelly's question, Bush immediately pivoted and praised his brother's 2007 troop surge for effectively bringing "security and stability to Iraq" and blasting the Obama administration's withdrawal from Iraq for "totally obliterating" the gains that had been made and giving rise to ISIS.
"The United States needs to be engaged in the world," Bush continued. "We need a foreign policy that is strong, secure and consistent."

Cooktops are a Great Alternative to a Traditional Range
Some people use the terms cooktop and range interchangeable, but they are very different things. A range is a unit that contains a combined cooktop and oven in one. There's a designated area with a set width for a range that will slide into place. A cooktop is built into a kitchen counter and can be placed anywhere you have the appropriate space and installed in many ways. This opens up so many design possibilities. Getting a cooktop offers far more flexibility when cooking compared to a traditional range, especially when you pair it with a wall oven. It's a lot easier to have multiple cooks in the kitchen with a cooktop because everyone isn't crowded around one cooking space.
Turn up the heat instantly with a gas cooktop. With gas, you don't have to wait for the heating element to warm up – your pan is hot within seconds. There's no limitation on the types of pans you can use with a gas cooktop, and it provides amazing precision in cooking temperature. Electric cooktops take some time to warm up but they are the easiest to use and the best choice for novice cooks. Go for easy clean up with smooth surface cooktops. There are no crevices for sauces to drip into and no crannies where crumbs can settle. The sleekness of the ceramic and glass these cooktops are made of add a gorgeous modern flair to your home. Do you need a two burner cooktop or a five burner cooktop? You have your pick of the litter at JCPenney, and some even have downdraft range hood built-in!
Make JCPenney your number one appliance store. We have the best prices on the latest cooktops in our home store front. Enjoy free delivery and basic installation on major appliance purchases for $299 and up.
